Hi,
working on 2.2.14, I have had a DOS attack on web server
making the load about 256.

I tried to killall -9 httpd and it did not work at all !!
in ps auxw I still had all process of httpd.
I did reboot serveur and it became normal.

question: why killall did not work ??

Thx
Octave

Amicalement,
